Re: Is 0.999999.... (infinite) equal to 1?
Yep, my line of thought was also the same as Patty's on this one from the earlier thread. Only one (or variables like 15/15) is equal to one in our current base 10 system. Excluding rounding for practical use:
If .9 repeating is = 1 then:
.9 to google plex= 1,
.99999999999999= 1,
.99999999999998= 1,
.9= 1,
.89= 1,
.75=1, etc.
Then all science theory breaks down into utter hopeless chaos... laugh.
